I just double checked on a test install from the 20110803.1-i386 image with no updates applied and post-installation the newly installed Ubuntu can be successfully rebooted using the instructions in comment #6, that is restart is successful from the login screen.
It's only in the live session that restart is unsuccessful from the upper right hand corner of the login screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/815077 Title: restart is missing from SessionMenu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-session/+bug/815077/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
